Part 2 of The fall and rise of Scarlett Johansson.
Being a big movie star made trying to live a normal life difficult - being a giant movie star made it impossible.
Ever since Scarlett had been enlarged it had been impossible for her to avoid the public eye. Normally she could just dress down and maybe wear a big hat, but when you get big enough you can't hide - even behind buildings.
She'd been turned into a giant as part of a film she was making. She didn't like the direction it was taking and had walked out - she refused to be reduced back to normal out of principle. When the studio had come to shrink her back down she'd stomped on the size-control machine and several of the execs with it.
Scarlett had now settled into a regular routine at her giant size. Each day she'd come into the city and see her agent to see if there were any new roles for her. She loved that she could live out of the city but still walk to the centre in a few minutes. She'd often pick up a few delivery trucks for breakfast on her way in. It was while looking for her fourth food truck of the day that the paparazzi caught up with her.
Normally she could ignore the reporters - she couldn't hear little people any more unless they were dumb enough to get too close to her - but today they'd hired a helicopter with a loudspeaker.
"Scarlett, are you ever going to shrink back down!?" they hounded her.
She turned her attention to the bugs bothering her - annoyingly they were keeping their distance so she couldn't swat them out of the sky like she wanted to.
She decided to go on the charm offensive - it didn't hurt to keep herself looking good in the press.
"Oh hey guys!" she beamed with her smile turned up to full, "What are you doing all the way over there? I don't mind you getting a bit closer."
She was happy to see the helicopter cautiously close in. A wicked idea crossed her mind - she wouldn't need to find another food truck if she could catch the helicopter. The fat paparazzi in it would probably fill her up for the rest of the day.
Her smile grew wider.
"Come on, I don't bite." she teased them, "I'm ready for my close up."
Meta: I felt like doing another collage with Scarlett Johansson and when I found this picture I thought it'd be a fun one to use. You don't often see her look so casual so it stood out to me. The original shot shows how short she normally is so it makes a good juxtaposition to see her blown up so huge. I've got another collage with her in the works which is almost the opposite of how she looks here.
